Forkner, Savatgy, Roczen, Tomac, Webb, Musquin, Hill, Barcia, Grant, Stewart, Enticknap...

Black Diesel Bomber
What a night...anyone have any info on any of these question marks?

Forkner - Practice crash, out for night with bad knee/leg, MRI scheduled. Not looking good.
Savatgy - Crash in main event, last seen holding his right arm/shoulder. How bad is it?
Roczen - Victim of Savatgy's crash in front of him. Appears to be okay.
Tomac - Bike blew up, LCQ, smoke, more smoke, and wins the Main. Something clicked tonight.
Webb - He should buy a lottery ticket.
Musquin - Has anyone seen footage of his crash in Main event? Great recovery to finish 6th
Hill - Crashed in main event? Footage?
Barcia - Crash or bike malfunction in main event?
Grant - Crash or bike malfunction in main event?
Stewart - Bad Crash, taken to hospital, anyone know condition?
Enticknap - Bad Crash, taken to hospital, anyone know condition?

What did I miss?

Barcia definitely looked like a crash, looked like he was holding his arm/wrist and his shoulder/neck brace area was covered in dirt.

It’s funny how things work. If he wasn’t doing so well this season people would be all over him for throwing a little hissy fit like that. Since he’s doing so well, and so many people have suddenly turned into “die hard” fans this season it’s no big deal. Yet if another rider they didn’t like did that there would be 3 threads talking about it.

Different imaginary rules for different guys I guess.

But did anyone see Marvin jump the whoops, and then from the last whoop over onto the next section?
That was impressive.

To bad he cant keep it together when he is clearly faster than Webb.. was hoping for a close championship in Vegas..

I saw that, Mark was on it.

I have a feeling we might get lucky and have a closer points battle in vegas...Webb's luck has to run out. He's almost wadded so many times. If Cooper has one bad race then Marv and Tomac will be back in it, and Tomac can "bunch em up" again in Vegas...

I think Cooper may have been the first to do that in the 250 main. Still cool, no matter who did it first, though.

Anything on Grant? Yamaha has to be thinking it was a huge mistake hiring him.

Huge mistake? I doubt he’s getting paid much, if anything. Who should they have picked instead?

Yes it was a mistake because so many other riders have won this yr! What were they thinking. 5 guys have wins and Barcia is one of them.

I think you're wrong. I haven't hear what he is getting paid but he turned down the Bloss fill in ride that Bogle got because it wasn't enough money for him. I would assume that he is getting paid relatively well from Yamaha.

3 rounds in, this is a disaster.

While everyone is busy complaining about RC, the production crew has yet to produce any highlight crash footage of Musquin, Hill, Barcia, or Grant...I can understand missing a crash occasionally, but for them to miss all with no mention of what happened in the Main?

Anyone on Vital who was at the race last night see Hill, Barcia, or Grant crash out?

He came off the couch. They knew what they were getting and that is a bike in the main event. Nothing more, nothing less. More importantly it should be considered that he comes off the couch and has been what, top 15ish. Think about that for a second.

I personally missed Hill and Grant, but Barcia wadded it coming into the turn before headed back down the start straight. Didn’t see the beginning of the crash but looks like he may have landed hard and got thrown off, landing on his arm.

Barcia went down on the last part of the rhythm before the sharp turn down the straight. Just happened to be watching him when he went down.

Let’s say your right, and he’s make good money. Who would have been a better fill in?

Tyler Bowers is a privateer, right? Ben Lamay? Chisholm? Honestly, there’s a handful of other guys I’d take before Grant at this point.

Grant did not deserve the Yamaha ride because he was not ready. Apparently, he was not in shape and had not been riding. He even stated he had not been riding. I would think if you are 'waiting' for a fill-in factory ride you would be riding and ready to go if the opportunity came.

I doubt another team will bring him in again next year unless somehow he pulls off some good finishes before season end. Everyone has to call it at some point and this may be Grant's time.

Apparently Yamaha is the one who thinks he deserves it and they are the one who cuts the check.
